[foxboro] alarm inhibiting vs. alarm disabling - process summary reporter

Hi, I'm a relatively new Foxboro user, and I'm trying to customize a 
report of inhibited alarms using the Process Summary Reporter and a little 
shell script.  I am a little confused about the difference between 
'inhibiting' and 'disabling' alarms, which are two separate entries in 
PSR.  'Alarms disabled' isn't described in the manual (B0193DG-E).
Am I right in thinking that 'disabling' refers to inhibiting alarms from 
the block detail page, as opposed to inhibiting via the ICC?  When a 
block's alarms are disabled, do they become 'inhibited' upon upload to the 
workfile?
